FAQ
WHAT ARE POLYPHENOLS? Polyphenols are natural plant compounds found in olive leaves, olive oil, and many other plants. They protect the plant from external influences and, due to their antioxidant properties, have been the focus of scientific research for many years. In skincare, polyphenols are valued because they can help protect the skin from oxidative stress and maintain its natural balance.
WHAT IS OLEUROPEIN? Oleuropein is one of the best-known active ingredients of the olive tree and is found primarily in the olive leaves. This secondary plant compound is one of the most important polyphenols and is characterized by its antioxidant properties. Therefore, oleuropein is frequently used in modern skin longevity programs.
WHY DOES ANA COSMETICS USE OLIVE LEAVES? Olive leaves have been among the most important ingredients in our formulations since Ana Cosmetics was founded. They contain valuable plant compounds and perfectly align with our philosophy of combining nature and science. Our formulas contain carefully selected olive leaf extracts derived from high-quality raw materials.
WHERE DOES THE OLIVE OIL COME FROM? The olive oil we use comes from Istria. This region is one of the most renowned olive-growing areas in Europe and is known for its exceptional quality. The olives are processed gently to preserve their valuable components as much as possible.
WHAT DOES SKIN LONGEVITY MEAN? Skin longevity describes a holistic approach aimed at preserving the skin's natural beauty and resilience over the long term. High-quality ingredients, a mindful lifestyle, and consistent skincare are central to this approach.
WHAT ARE FREE RADICALS? Free radicals are highly reactive molecules that can be generated by various external influences. These include, for example, environmental pollution, stress, and other factors of daily life. Antioxidant plant compounds such as polyphenols help protect the skin from these influences.
WHY DOES THE SKIN BARRIER PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE? The skin barrier forms the skin's natural protective layer. It helps retain moisture and protects the skin from external influences. A strong skin barrier supports a balanced and healthy complexion.
ARE OLIVE LEAVES AND OLIVE OIL THE SAME? No. Although both come from the olive tree, they are quite different. Olive leaves are particularly rich in polyphenols and oleuropein. Olive oil contains valuable fatty acids, squalene, and other plant-based ingredients that provide intensive skin care. Together, they complement each other perfectly.
